This is all just fascinating. I especially love the teacher who worked alongside his students so that he could understand and teach them better. What insight he had!
I wonder how many Chinese slaves were allowed access to this idea? Dying at a rate of perhaps a dozen a mile for the rail they helped to lay, they were hardly in the eye of kindness. Yet undoubtedly they too were as 'Canadian' as anyone else, whatever this meant or even means today.
Another really cool story. I've spent 35 years working off and on at mine camps. There was always a lot of book trading going on. Thank you, Kathleen!

Amazing. I never had any idea
Interesting story. I wonder if French Canadians working in these camps had French readings.

I liked this very much. The videos were good too. Thanks for sharing
